Nature-based Solutions for Climate-smart Livelihoods in Mangrove Landscapes (NASCLIM)

About this project

Indonesia is home to 20% of the world’s mangroves. The rate of mangrove forests degradation in Indonesia is the fastest and the largest in the world. More damage to mangrove forests is due to the conversion of functions into shrimp ponds. Climate change already has direct impact to mangrove ecosystems and has created coastal and mangrove abrasion/erosion. The Sustainable Mangrove Ecosystems program aims to protect vast healthy mangrove forest and rehabilitate critical mangrove forest in priority locations using a collaborative and inclusive management approach, engaging local community, private sector, finance sector, regional and national government. The divers of mangrove degradation will be addressed through collaborative business-based & community-based approaches, whereby local community will be able to take advantage of opportunities to improve livelihoods sustainably including non-timber mangrove forest product and other livelihood activities. Gender will play a decisive role in ensuring the active inclusion of women and other vulnerable groups and making optimal use of local knowledge. Relevant local government will be supported to strengthen and harmonize intersectoral policies, plans and create targeted finance mechanisms.
